Hey Justin...your related texts can be anything from books, TV shows, movies, songs, poems, articles or whatever...so you can widen your research a bit to cover all that type of stuff.

You're into rap and stuff right? If so, I'm sure there's heaps of rap and whatever about the state their lives are in.

Good luck...see ya in Chem ;)

Go into the forum, where you can see all the threads and there's a button labelled "New Thread". It's located at the top and bottom of the list of threads in that forum.

That's a pretty shitty speech.. 8 - 10 minutes long is a long time. In the HSC exam I think you only need to refer to around two.

IIRC there are some komninos notes in the resource section, located here:

hey... how weird is this.. mine isnt a speech that you read out, its like one you write and never say lol.. in other words you say good morning class ... thanks for listening.. thats like the main difference haha

im doing komninos poems.. the essay is this friday! crap!


well its not too bad.. i do standard and im topping my class without trying.. so i might try a little lol

well i try.. i like write the essay out like 20 freakin times or something but still lol

i was brainstorming extra materials
then i was like hey this all sounds like society and culture.. hmm... so i went to my society and culture heinneman text book and i saw this article about the 'tribes in sydney' of teenagers like yuppies etc.. so i decided to do that, cause its interesting and shows the stereotypes existing in society.. so yeah!

i hope it goes ok.. my teachers such a blonde she had no idea wats goin on.. air head, i ask her to mark an essay and all she does is like ticks it with her purple pen and draws little stars then writes good boy! i love it... then i get like 15/20 and im like how can i improve.. teachers no help!

how long are ur essays mine will be like 4 pgs tops.. i know its bad

wow i talk alot.. neho good luck with ur tests!
